The Plan[]
The 5 Nations Railway Project was founded by Daventry, and Loughborough, the P.R.U.K., Market Harborough and Central Northamptonshire and Buckinghamshire on July the 15th, 1998. Sutton and Rutland joined in 6 weeks later. East Anglia joined the project in mid 1999.

4 3 Carriage steam trains had chuffed from Hemmel Heampstead to Weliingborough or Northampton via Liegton Buzard, Bletchley, Fenny Stratford and Wolverton on partly rebuilt lines during weekdays for years. A small line with a 1 carriage train also ran from Aylesbury to Chedddington, Bletchley and Wolverton, but was rarely used. A new or re-activated east-west railway was mooted since the north-south 2 lines’ re-activation in 1977. Verney Junction and Calvert Junction were to be totally rebuilt with help from Lille-Walonia and Lower Saxony, after being hit by a 1kt nuke in WW3, the prior, falling about 0.5 miles west of it's target and the latter not explodeing, but but just broke up spilling toxic wast every were. Both the near by stations were heavy damaged.
The People of Central Northamptonshire, Daventry and Buckinghamshire all wanted to attach themselves to the main network of the PRUK somewhere in Warwickshire or Derbyshire and possibly dive a line south to Sussex or even east to East Anglia in time.
They started, with help from the PRUK in 1984, but the warlords of Brackley and Daventry were concerned over the infringement of there sovrenity by the other nations and wanted a better deal.
Long range travel is still mostly by horse and bicycle, since there are few motor vehicles. A 2 track railway unifies Banstead and, Epsom, Buckingham, Slough, Horsham and Crawley. It was built in 2009 and has 3 diesel train services a week day. 2 more trains run on the Saturdays, but don't call at Banstead and Epsom.
